Greater Dallas Edges Out All These Cities in Recruiting for Finance Jobs

More Job Postings Come as Firms Pour Investment Into North Texas Corporate Campuses, JLL Says

Greater Dallas is leading the charge in the growth of financial job postings among metropolitan areas across the United States.

It comes as Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo and Bank of America have all increased investment in their corporate campuses in the Dallas area, according to real estate services firm JLL.

Cities that recorded the most growth in job postings since 2019 include the Dallas suburbs of Plano, Texas, with an 84% gain; and Irving, Texas, with a 76% increase. They were followed by Tampa, Florida, with a 64.5% jump.

The JLL report found that U.S. markets with the largest demand for new financial workers — based on job postings from 2021 to 2023 — are New York, with 129,072 postings; Dallas-Fort Worth, with 64,1910 postings; Chicago, with 41,478 postings; Charlotte, North Carolina, with 38,630 postings; and Philadelphia, with 35,282 postings.

The World Economic Forum projects high churn in the financial industry through 2027, reflecting job changes driven by technology, according to JLL.
